MircroRNA-92b as a negative regulator of the TGF-β signaling by targeting the type I receptor.
Article in iScience, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Transforming growth factor β1 (TGFβ1) has been identified as a major pathogenic factor underlying the development of chronic kidney disease (CKD). This study investigated the role of miR-92b-3p in the progression of renal fibrosis in unilateral ureteral occlusion (UUO) and unilateral ischemia-reperfusion injury (uIRI) mouse models, as well as explored its underlying mechanisms in human proximal tubular epithelial (HK2) cells. We found that renal fibrosis increased in UUO mice after miR-92b knockout, while it reduced in miR-92b overexpressing mice. MiR-92b knockout aggravated renal fibrosis in uIRI mice. RNA-sequencing analysis, the luciferase reporter assay, qPCR analysis, and western blotting confirmed that miR-92b-3p directly targeted TGF-β receptor 1, thereby ameliorating renal fibrosis by suppressing the TGF-β signaling pathway. Furthermore, we found that TGF-β suppressed miR-92b transcription through Snail family transcriptional repressors 1 and 2. Our results suggest that miR-92b-3p may serve as a novel therapeutic for mitigating fibrosis in CKD.
